For the love of God am I pregnant or not 🤦🏼‍♀️

Fair warning, this post is LONGGGG. But please read completely before commenting.

Okay I’ve had some thinking to do over this and the more time that goes by, the more confused and irritated I become. Just looking for any experiences as to what could possibly be going on with me. Keep in mind that I don’t know when my period is supposed to even start which is adding to my anxiety about the wait. But here we go:

Last week I started getting faint positives. Super faint. But then I started getting faint positives that were easier to see. Like without taking a pic and tweaking and all that mess. I was super happy! Especially considering now I’m having a few symptoms (more hungry, crazy mood swings, waves of nausea, diarrhea, daily headaches, and pulling and tugging feeling in pelvis around my c section scar and pain going into my groin). I’ll post my tests.

This brings us to yesterday. At 8:30 am I took a Walgreens early detect and got a faint line. It wasn’t as noticeable as my others so of course I worried but just shrugged it off, and headed to get my blood drawn for my beta at 9:30, exactly one hour later.

Y’all my beta results came back this morning... <1 🤦🏼‍♀️ (I’ll post my results as well).

Sure it’s possible I’m making this up in my head. It’s also possible that I’m going through a second chemical. It did cross my mind before the bloodwork since my lines weren’t as noticeable and I had one the month before so I knew it was a possibility.

BUT WHAT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND: is how I can get faint positives on SIX DIFFERENT BRANDS OF TESTS. Not only that. But I somehow managed to get a faint line the day they took this negative blood test???

Even if it happens to be a chemical, what I’m failing to understand is, if there was enough HCG to make a faint line on a hpt, how could a blood test say there was less than 1??

I will say this is NOT an indent line. I grabbed the other test and opened it today, looked at it and did indeed see an indent line. They do not look the same. I proceeded to use urine diluted a lot with water to test and make sure it’s not the hook effect, and sure enough it’s negative. A definite difference between the two tests.

If y’all could just give me some insight into this? I know I should just wait for my period to come but clearly I’m impatient so just wondering if anyone has had similar experiences?

NOTE: please do not comment on this post saying “I don’t see anything” or “negative, sorry” as I’m not looking for you to tell me whether there is a line or not. The ones I’m posting will only be tests that I could easily see in person within time frame and that had color.

The frer is way harder to see but I could see it in person.

These last two are from the test taken yesterday before bloodwork. Yes the test is dry in the pic but I can’t find pics from time frame. The line was there almost instantly and it’s pink.

Am I going crazy? If I were having a chemical and the tests were getting lighter because of it, all I can think is that these tests can’t detect <1 of HCG???
